Summary
Customer profile
Ingran Engineering - Telemetry and remote control of water pumping in search of savings and optimization of the installation
Challenge
The customer needed a solution for monitoring a water pump for irrigation. The solution they came up with had to be efficient, good looking and inexpensive. "Good, Pretty and Cheap", as the customer put it.
- Measurement of electrical parameters of a pump: Power, Voltage, Power Factor, etc.
- Measures of aquifer parameters: Electrical conductivity (salinity), Water level under ground, etc.
- Measurement of parameters of extracted water: Flow, Pressure, etc.
- Data records every 10 seconds, which have to be displayed via Web and Mobile
Also, these restriction were present:
- Needed to use GSM / GPRS / 3G for communication
- Devices needed to have CE marking
- It had to be compatible with what had already been assembled: various types of flow meters, aquifer level meters, etc.
Solution
The customer came up with the Neurtura - a custom monitoring device that would suit their needs. The Neurtura is comprised of a magnetothermic, an electric power analyzer, the Industruino D21G IND I/O with its Ethernet module next to it, a 24 Volt power supply and a Teltonika RUT230 router used for remote Firmware updates.
Since RUT230 is a CE certified 3G cost effective router that delivers high performance for mission-critical cellular communication, it was the perfect fit given the circumstances.
